Thomas Madison family per Reminisces of Eastern Oregon

Birth record of Humphrey Madison from the Family Bible of Thomas and Johannah Madison, from Reminiscences of Eastern Oregon by Elizabeth Laughlin Lord. http://ir.library.oregonstate.edu/xmlui/bitstream/handle/1957/12698/ReminiscencesEasternOregon_Pt2.pd

Quoting from a 2001 message board post by Margaret Amundson:

Did your Humphrey die in 1756 or there abouts? If so he was probabley the son of Thomas Madison and wife Johannah of Caroline County, VA.

In 1903 Mrs. Elizabeth Laughlin Lord published at Portland, Oregon, Reminiscences of Eastern Oregon
She states the book is for the consumption of her family and in order that certain Bible records might be preserved, she inserts them in an appendix of her book which is in the Library of the National Society, Daughters of the American Revolution, Washington, D. C. Among the Bible records in this volume is that of Thomas Madison and Johannah, his wife:

Thomas Madison died January 20, 1754 and Johannah, his wife, died April 13, 1758. Their children were:
  1. J. Madison born October 26, 1719
  2. Ambrose Madison born March 11, 1724
  3. Jane Madison born February 11, 1728; died October 24, 1767
  4. Humphrey Madison born April 25, 1730; died September 12, 1756
  5. Ann Madison born July 31, 1733
  6. Sarah Madison born February 29, 1735; died October 31 1801. She married on November 27 1755, Thomas Laughlin who was born in England and came to America early 1700s; he died December 13, 1801.

Most references and online family trees that I've seen show Humphrey Madison as a child of Thomas Madison's brother John Madison III and John's (purported) first wife Eliza Minor. This is the only research report that I've found that supports my view that he is Thomas' child. My view is also supported by references in
